Go to external page http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/NCIT_C122771


A ligand-receptor complex comprised of a homodimer of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family proteins bound to a heterodimer of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) family proteins. Ligand binding triggers receptor dimerization and cross-receptor tyrosine phosphorylation, which promotes downstream signal transduction. [ ]
